BIG BATTLE IMPENDING Belhgerents in East Ready ol Clash, LONG LINE OF TROOPS German-Austrian Forces Face Main Russian Army. - London, Oct. 27.—Reports from the eastern front indicate that the great- est battle of the war in that area is impending. Austria, in its latest of- ficial statement, makes thc claim of having thrust strong forces across the Carpathians in the face of determined resistance. German and Austrian forces, it is sald, have a strong wall ‘of troops along a well established line frém the northern spurs of the Carpathians be- fore the long disputed fortress of Przemysl and on into the district of Plock. Before this line is arrayed the main army of the Russians, said to have been reinforced by troops from the Caucasus, Siberia and Turkestan. The Austrians clalm successes in engage- ments to the northeast of Przemysl and on the Lower San. A French official statement says: “To the west of the Vistula and to the north of the Pilica river the Ger- mans have been forced back on Lowicz, Skierniewice and Rawa, which have been captured at the bayonet point by the Russians. Lively Engagement Fought. “To the south of the Pilica, in the direction of Radom, there has been a lively engagement between the Rus: slans and the Austro-Germans, who lost prisoners and cannon. “To the south of Solec the Russian troops crossed the Vistula by main force, driving the Austrians back. On the River San and to the south of Przemysl there have occurred stub- born combats resulting favorably to the Rusians. An Austrian column de- bouching from the Carpathians on Dolina (In Galicia, twenty-two miles to the south of Stry) was routed.” The Germans, according to Petro- grad advices, attempted to arrest the Rusgsian offensive movement at Sok- hatchoff but were dislodged from their positions with heavy.losses. A Berlin report says the Russians, who had withdrawn most of their troops from :Lemburg, the capital of Galicia, have sent 80,000 men there to fortify the town against the Austrian advance in that reglon. GERMANS FIGHTING FOR CHANNEL PORTS Yondon, Oct. 27.—As claimed by Berlin and acknowledged by Paris the (iermans undoubtedly have cross- ed the Yser river between Dixmude and Nieuport, but whether or not this means a forward step in the “on to Calais” movement may depend on operations further eastward. Rumors continue to reach London of the.impending evacuation of Os- tend and the reduction in strength of the German garrison in Antwerp. This does not necessarily imply prepa- rations for a retreat, but it may mean that the Germans are throwing every available man against the allies’ left in their effort to conquer the chan- nel ports. Along the Belgian littoral the al- lied fleet continues its bombardment. The great shells traveling three miles inland evidently have proved very ef- fective, judging from the tragic fate of General von Tripp and the mem- bers of his staff, who were killed by a projectile from a warship. SERVIANS ARE FORCED BACK Austrian Forces Are Victorious Near Serajevo. Cettinje, Oct. 27.—1t is officially ad- mitted the attempt of the combined Servian-Montenegrin army to take Serajevo, capital of Bosnia, has fail- ed. Tn a statement the war office says: “The combined Servian-Montenegrin army, finding itself outnumbered, has retired from its .advanced positions in the vicinity of Serajevo. The Aus- trians have been unable to dislodge us from our secondary lines or to pursue the advantages thus gained.” Battlefield Permits Canceled, London, Oct. 27.—A dispatch from Copenhagen to the Daily Mail says: “All permits to visit the German bat- tlefields have been canceled by the German general staff.” Major General Killed.

CARRANZA Mexicans at Aguas Calientes Ready for Action. FIRST CHIEF IS WILLING Agives to Retire in Favor of Provi- sional President on Condition That No Objestions Be Made to His Can- didacy for Head of Government at Regular Eicction. Washington, Oect. 27.—Official re- ports received here indicate that the Mexican national convention at Aguas Calintes will shortly depose General Carranza as first chief and substitute a provisional president. American Consul Silliman reported he was reliably informed of General Carranza’s intention to retire under conditions that no objections would be interpcsed to his candidacy at a regular election and that the tenure of the provisional government should be short. Omeials here believe that while Carranza refused to take the initia- tive in submitting his resignation he would abide by the convention’s de- cision, should it vote to retire him. No Preparations to Fight. Evidence of that was contained in official advices wlich reported Car- ranza making no extraordiary mili- tary preparations. While no confirmation has been re- ceived of reported —disturbances in Mexico City official advices told of a general order by Carranza deposing many commanders who were Villa adherents in the convention and ap- pointing others in their place. S ‘arly a decree was issued by Carrén- za informing all chiefs throughout the republic tbat he was still first chief and to obey only orders from him instead of the convention. The war department rcceived from Colonel Hatfield, commanding Ameri- can troops on the Arizon~ horder, a message saying Governor Mez:!crena of Sonora was “slowly ar’ iy leaving Naco. MRS. CARMAN IS 0UT ON BAIL OF -$25,000 New York, Oct. 27.—Mrs. Florence Conklin Carman, who was on trial in Mineola all last week for the murder of Mrs. Louise Bailey, was released on $25,000 bail by Justice Charles H. Kel- by in the Kings county supreme court in Brooklyn. Accompanied by her at- torneys she started immediately for her home in Freeport. The district attorney had announced that he would not seek to have Mrs. Carman tried again. Her own coun- sel, on the other hand, said he would demand a new trial, as he would not permit the indictment to hang over his client. Mrs. Carman was said to be in a state of collapse as a result of the jury's failure to acquit her. CARRIES WRECK SURVIVORS Revenue Cutter Bear Lands Stefans- son Party at Victoria. Victorla, B.

NORTHERN EPIRUS INVADED Trouble in Albania May Force Italy | Into Conflict. London, chronic disturber of the peace of Al- bania, is said to have invaded North- ern Epirus. If this is true it may bring about the entrance of Italy into the conflict. Essad’s activity may compel Italy to consider the necessity of occupying Avlona, a step which might not meet with favor in Austria- Hungary.
